The recent disasters in south asia have rightfully attracted the attention of the world as humanity responds with the desire to support and assist that I believe is our specie’s nature when confronted with such need. However, we also know that this system has a compelling desire to divert our gaze from another and ongoing disaster of it’s own making. That is why I have sent to you these reports on the plight of the Iraqi people struggling against continuing war crimes and occupation. It is our duty and it is in our interest to put an end to this clear “crime against humanity.”How To Opt Out of Yahoo Surveillance

04-01-2005 13:15
ROBERT FISK: Well, I think that the whole project in Iraq is finished. We are not being told by Mr. Blair in my case and Bush in yours that this is the case, and perhaps through their own misjudgment or their own fantasies, they don't even accept this themselves. But the American project for democracy or whatever its real purposes were, for oil, economic expansion, Middle East fit for Israel, whatever it may have been, that project is finished. It is hopeless. It cannot succeed.East Timor: New Law to Stifle Political Dissent

03-01-2005 22:19
As the elections draw closer in Iraq the co-alition forces with the Interim government have decided that silence speaks a thousand words.Up to the end of the elections all communications within Iraq have ceased, they are effectively cut-off from the world and each other. In a country fighting for basic rights there has descended a new method in the fight against ‘Insurgents’, which I call QUARANTINE IRAQ

MSF BURIED STORY - FAIR AND EQUAL TREATMENT FOR TSUNAMI VICTIMS
03-01-2005 14:04
